Culver Fellows

The John C. Culver Fellows program honors Senator Culver’s career and legacy in public service. Each year, a group of incoming freshman with a passion for politics, history, or public service are selected as Culver Fellows and awarded a renewable scholarship in the range of $16,000 to $20,000.

“It is more important than ever that we encourage and inspire young people to commit to contributing through their service.”

— Senator John C. Culver

“Culver Fellows gain valuable leadership experience on campus and in the broader community as ambassadors for Simpson College’s culture of civic engagement. Senator Culver’s legacy of service inspires them to pursue careers in politics and public policy.”

— Jay K. Simmons, Ph.D., Simpson College President

Encouraging other students to engage in the political process by becoming informed on issues, working towards solutions, volunteering, and voting.
